I'm looking for any resources on how to use qemu as a platform for testing in embedded systems. Specifically, I'm interested in testing slightly obscure device drivers (CAN, SPI, etc). I've looked around for resources on how to stimulate specific IO events by, from the host-side, writing to the virtual hardware registers and triggering interrupts inside the qemu guest. I guess you could use GDB, but this feels slightly hacky...
Essentially, automated testing for embedded using qemu is an idea that I casually pitched, which attracted some attention in my company. But to pursue it, I'll need to present some form of proof of concept without spending too much time on it - which is why a tutorial-type resource would be great.
